Organic Cotton

To aid in the environmental effort, we are proud to announce that we have begun using organic cotton in our t-shirts. All of our t-shirts will now be 100% Organic Cotton. Some of the benefits of using organic cotton are:

• Manual farming and organic practices have a lower carbon footprint as the entire process consumes less fuel and energy and emits fewer greenhouse gases.
  


• Not from genetically modified cottonseed.
  


• Grown with natural rather than synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, no chemical defoliants used.
  


• Eco-friendly processing that does not compromise workers' health and helps reduce water and electric use and toxic runoff, e.g. non-chlorine bleach, silicon-free softeners and low impact, azo-free dyes.
  


• Strict testing ensures the absence of contaminants like nickel, lead, formaldehyde, amines, pesticides and heavy metals.
  


• People with allergies and chemical sensitivity especially benefit from organic cotton clothing, as conventional cotton may retain harmful toxic residues. Even if you don't have sensitive skin, organic cotton will just feel better against your skin.
